• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Please pray for wisdom for me as I am tracking multiple tasks and ministry and my health is becoming a challenge. Yes, I know too much can cause me stress and trigger problems. It is not that. I have had a sleep study and discovered that due to porr breathing I have had very frqactured REM sleep for over 10 years at least, thus I have a new cpap mask and due to some anxiety am having trouble adjusting to it. Thus I am exhausted more than usual and I have also had a recurrence of the side effect from my med. Mood is staying okay right now, just a touch lower and a touch more irritable. But my prayer request is for wisdom!!! In my health and what is causing what, so that I can tell if i start to shift moods, too know if to continue this med, or change, to contimue in my diet and lose the last 40 pounds, and to know when to push my anxiety and use the cpap mask and get my sleeping back and when to not push it.

Sorry for the long and confusing note, but thanks for the prayers!!!:groupray:

am so thankful that God has me in the palm of His hand and promises to answer our prayers for wisdom!!!

PS Never mind that I am going to have to file in small claims court on an injury and am trying to help my son with his ssi claim and have a voc rehab referal myself and my son (also bp) is coming home for a few weeks if not until August. So all prayers are greatly appreciated!!! And am giving advice to a dear friend whose dil was arrested for embezzlement and the other grandma is trying to take custody from her son of the little one year old grandson. Just a snapshot of a few of the things I am tracking and dealing with right now!!! Praise God that we can always turn to him!!!!

Dear Alive again


My daughter had the same breathing problems and had her tonsils and adenoids taken out and never had a problem after that.


We became very concerned when she would take so long between breathes.


You are in my prayers.

Update!!!

Had my voc rehab appt today and it went well. It looks like they are willing to pay for my reentry to nursing program and see how much work I can tolerate.

My son is now in my home, looking for a job. Very temporary I hope, but added stress.

No changes with sleep and cpap issues, UGH and the low soduim thing is still hanging out there. But I am back on track with my diet which is exciting. I have 30 lbs left until my goal wt

thank you all for your prayers and I would appreciate any continued prayers fpor peace in my home as my son is also bp and basically homelees and jobless and our budget is over extendign even more with him here, and as I investigate God's will and if I am even able to work any again.

Thank you!!!
